Morgan Creek Park/Arboretum this morning in Cedar Rapids, IA. I tried to get on the ground with him, but that caused him to move directly at me, making it difficult to get a focused shot. He was too close for the telephoto lens to focus several times. He was curious and calm.
Finally feeling like spring here in Iowa. Saw a goose rustling the jimmies of some turtles at the park, and I caught a squirrel off-guard in my back yard.
Sunny and 60s in Iowa. Caught several Bald Eagles and Ring-billed Gulls in flight over the Cedar River. These were a couple of my favorite. 🌿 Sony A7ii, Sigma 100-400mm contemporary

I might only go out for photos once or twice every month or two, but I had to grab the camera earlier when I saw this guy chilling on a landscaping edger. Grasshopper at my house in Cedar Rapids.
Only one older pic from the collection. I'll only post new ones after this, but how cool was the timing to find this? Ellis Park, Cedar Rapids. Water Snake.
